●Demonstrations in Teaching;
●Making the Most of Community Resources.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Dramatic experiences come next to contrived experiences in the cone of experience.●Do these dramatic experiences require us to be dramatic in our entrance and in our lesson presentations?
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Dramatic is something that is stirring, affecting or moving.●Dramatic Entrance is something that catches and holds attention, and has emotional impacts.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Dramatized Experiences can range from:
– Formal Plays– Pageants– Tableau– Pantomime– Puppets– Role-playing
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Plays depict life, character, culture, or a combination of the three.●They offer excellent opportunities to portray vividly important ideas about life.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Pageants are usually community dramas that are based on local history.●An example is a historical pageant that traces the growth of a school.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Pantomime is an “art of conveying a story through bodily movements.”●The effects of pantomime to the audience depends on the movements of the actors.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Tableau is a picture-like scene composed of people against a background.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Puppets - A puppet is an inanimate object or representational figure animated or manipulated by an entertainer, who is called a puppeteer.●Puppets can present ideas with extreme simplicity.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Types of Puppets
– Shadow puppets – flat, black silhouette made from lightweight cardboard shown behind a screen.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Types of Puppets
– Rod puppets – flat, cut-out figures tacked to a stick with one or more movable parts, and are operated below the stage through wires or rods.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Types of Puppets
– Glove-and-finger puppets – make use of gloves which small costumed figures are attached.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Types of Puppets
– Marionettes – flexible, jointed puppets operated by strings or wires attached to a cross bar and maneuvered from directly above the stage.
Teaching with Dramatized Experiences●Role-Playing is an unrehearsed, unprepared and spontaneous dramatization of a situation where assigned participants are absorbed by their own roles.
Demonstrations in Teaching
●Demonstration is a public showing and emphasizing of the salient merits, utility, efficiency, etc. of an article or product.
Demonstrations in Teaching
●Components of a Demonstration– Audience– Speaker– Method, Product, Proof
Demonstrations in Teaching
●Using demonstration in classroom:– Establish rapport.– Avoid COIK fallacy (Clear Only If Known)– Watch for key points
Demonstrations in Teaching
●Point to Remember– A good demonstration is an audio-visual
demonstration.– Before demonstration: set objectives, prepare
materials, plan the steps, and rehearse.– During demonstration: sustain the interest of
the audience, keep it simple, check for understanding, have a summary, and provide hand-outs (if possible).
Making the Most of Community Resources●Field Trip - A field trip or excursion, is a journey by a group of people to a place away from their normal environment.
Making the Most of Community Resources●Field Trips must be planned precisely.
– Preliminary planning (teacher)– Secondary planning (teacher and other
people)– Taking the field trip– Post-field trip follow-up.
Making the Most of Community Resources●During planning:
– Plan the entire lesson (of the field trip).– Arrange with school heads the details of the trip.– Plan then contact the places to visit.– Provide a route plan.– Discuss objectives, procedure, and other things
concerning the lesson with the students.– Communicate with the parents.– Discuss safety measures, and safety guidelines.
Making the Most of Community Resources●Advantages
– Opportunities for rich and memorable experiences which are fundamental to learning.
– Brings learners to the world beyond the classroom.
– Have wide range of applications.– Brings plenty of realizations.
Making the Most of Community Resources●Disadvantages
– It is costly.– It involves logistics.– It is extravagant with time.– Has elements of uncertainty.
Making the Most of Community Resources●Other Community Resources

Summary
When applying other bands of the cone of experience:●Satisfy the needs of the students.●Satisfy the lesson objectives.●Know the pros and cons of the instructional material or educational technology to be used.●Prepare the material/technology ahead of time.●Follow other guidelines.
